- Identify the type of behavior. 1) 2) Goose. Bees attracted to the smell of the flower and flying towards the scent. _: Once initiated, it will run to completion and this could be observed in nesting behavior of Graylag 3)_ : A genetically program form of learning during developmental stage. Example: sparrow babies learn how to sing exactly at the same frequency as the mother. But if the babies grow isolated from their mother, the singing frequency will be different. 4) A turtle draws its head back into its shell when its shell is touched. After being touched repeatedly, the turtle realizes it is not in danger and no longer hides. This is an example of 5) : A child might stop throwing tantrums after his/her favorite toy is taken away after each tantrums.In an investigation of fruit fly behavior, an enclosed choice chamber was used to test whether the spatial distribution of flies is affected by the presence of a substance placed at one end of the chamber. To test the flies’ preference for different substances, 50 flies were introduced into the choice chamber. A piece of ripe banana was placed at the end of the chamber on side A and a piece of unripe banana was placed at the end of the chamber on side B (Figure 1). The positions of the flies were observed and recorded at the start of the experiment and after 10 minutes (Table 1).What are interesting facts that applies to adaptation as a unifying theme?
- Please answer number 6 Questions: What kind of evidence would indicate that the ability to taste PTC is inherited? Why was it important for Snyder to verify that males and females had similar proportions of tasters and non-tasters? Why do couples who can taste PTC have children who cannot? What is the significance of the fact that couples who cannot taste PTC never have children who can? Based on these data, what can you conclude about PTC taste blindness? What is your evidence? The second parent-phenotype combination would appear to represent a group of test crosses. What ratios are expected from test crosses and what does each ratio represent? These data don’t seem to fit either of these expected ratios. How can you explain this?What are the effects of artificial selection during animal domestication?What is the prototype approach? What experiments did Rosch do thatdemonstrated connections between prototypicality and behavior?
